Training | Foundational Learning Competence

The argument for FLC Training

Foundational Learning Competencies is a relatively "new" training initiative. It is a "replacement" of the traditional Fundamental Unit Standards in regards to Occupational training qualifications.

Foundational Learning refers to the competence needed in the two key areas of Communication and Mathematical Literacy in order to deal successfully with occupational learning at NQF Levels 2-4.Its key purpose is to remove barriers to learning and progress in occupational pathways and skills development.

It does not equate to English as a second language at Matric level, but rather to the English communication skills required to deal with training on occupational & trade learning programmes. The same is true of the numeracy component of this PART qualification.

When a learner achieves both the communication & mathematical literacy certificate, they have a part qualification, which means any other occupation learning programme or qualification at NQF 2-4 level they already have banked the fundamentals credits and do not have to repeat those parts of the qualification.

This is the next stepping stone for learners after they have completed the AET Literacy & Numeracy Level 3 | 4 at NQF 1.

Value of the FLC Training

The FLC training is NOT just good for learners or staff who wish to embark on a trade or occupation training programme - it is a great training programme for improving both English Communication Skills for business use as well as any other study purposes.

Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow. ~Anthony J. D'Angelo

Foundational Communication

The part qualification component 'Foundational Communication' describes the language skills, processes, knowledge and practices needed in the language of instruction for occupational training, and in the language of formal usage in the workplace.

Mathematical Literacy

'Foundational Mathematical Literacy' is the minimum, generic mathematical literacy that will provide learners with the necessary foundation to cope with themathematical demands of occupational training and to engage meaningfully in real - life situations.
